Definitions

  • the invention relates to an electropneumatic brake control module for commercial vehicles with a supply connection for connecting a compressed air supply, a first axle channel connection, a pneumatically controlled inlet/outlet valve unit for modulating a first brake pressure at the first axle duct connection, and an electropneumatic pilot control unit for modulating at least one first control pressure at the Inlet-outlet valve unit.
  • the invention also relates to a vehicle with such an electropneumatic brake control module.
  • Electropneumatic brake control modules of the type mentioned above are used in pneumatic brake systems for motor vehicles, in particular commercial vehicles.
  • Pneumatic braking systems for motor vehicles usually have a pneumatically actuable wheel brake for each wheel of the motor vehicle, the pneumatic operating medium, in particular compressed air, being provided for the wheel brakes in a pressure reservoir under static pressure.
  • the brake systems have a brake signal transmitter, which is coupled to the movement of a brake pedal that can be actuated by the driver of the motor vehicle and generates a brake request signal when the brake pedal is actuated.
  • a setpoint braking pressure is set at the wheel brakes as a function of the braking request signal.
  • the brake signal generator can also work purely electronically, so that a brake request signal is output in particular from a central control module or the like.
  • the electro-pneumatic brake control module of the present invention is used in particular to receive a brake request signal and then to output a corresponding first brake pressure at the first axle channel connection.
  • the first axle channel connection is provided for a front axle, for example.
  • the output first brake pressure can then either be output for both the left and the right wheel brake, or it can be further modulated.
  • the electropneumatic brake control module of the present invention is therefore also referred to as an axle modulator, since it serves to output a (global) brake request signal for one of the front and rear axles or several axles separately and preferably in a modulated manner.
  • An electro-pneumatic brake control module of the type mentioned above is off DE 10 2014 006 614 A1 known to the applicant here.
  • a pneumatic brake device for motor vehicles containing a brake signal transmitter, a pressure storage tank and a pneumatically actuatable wheel brake per wheel and at least one axle of the motor vehicle with one electrically controllable wheel brake module per wheel for setting a target brake pressure on the respective wheel brake, and with an electronic Control unit for determining default values for the setpoint brake pressures of the wheel brakes, taking into account the brake signal generator, which can be specified for the wheel brake modules.
  • Each wheel brake module includes: at least one ventilation valve and one ventilation valve, electrically actuable activation means for activating the ventilation valve and/or the ventilation valve, control logic with means for generating an actuating signal for the activation means corresponding to the default value for the setpoint brake pressure.
  • the ventilation valve and its activation means are designed in such a way that the pneumatic pressure from the storage pressure reservoir can be controlled directly to the respective wheel brakes when the ventilation valve is actuated and/or the ventilation valve vents the brake pressure at the wheel brake directly to the atmosphere when it is actuated.
  • the wheel brake module includes a pneumatically actuable 2/2-way valve as the ventilation and venting valve. There is no relay valve connected between a supply connection and the corresponding connection for the wheel brake.
  • the electrically actuable activation means are designed as an electro-pneumatic pilot control unit, which controls a corresponding control pressure for the 2/2-way valves that form the ventilation valve and the vent valve.
  • a method for operating a braking system for a vehicle having an electronic actuating device for modulating a braking pressure for a brake of the vehicle in a normal operating mode and a pneumatic actuating device for modulating the braking pressure in a backup operating mode.
  • the method includes a step of classifying an error signal indicating an error in the electronic actuating device.
  • the object mentioned at the outset is achieved in that the electropneumatic brake control module has a redundant pressure connection for receiving a redundant pressure and a redundant valve unit connected to the redundant pressure connection for modulating a redundant brake pressure at the first axle channel connection, in the event that the electropneumatic pilot control unit has an error.
  • the redundant pressure is preferably provided by a brake pedal. This means that in the event of a fault, a vehicle driver can generate a manually controlled redundant pressure by actuating the brake pedal, which is then made available at the redundant pressure connection. According to the invention, this redundant pressure is then used to replace the first brake pressure, in that a redundant brake pressure is then modulated at the first axle channel connection.
  • the failure of one or more valves of the electropneumatic pilot control unit the failure of an electronic control unit that provides actuating signals for the electropneumatic pilot control unit, the failure of a central control module or the like is regarded as a fault in the electropneumatic pilot control unit. All of these cases have in common that an electronic brake request signal cannot be generated, cannot be processed, or cannot be processed correctly. In this case, the first brake pressure is then replaced by the redundant brake pressure.
  • the safety of the electropneumatic brake control module can be improved. Even in the event that an electronic component does not function or does not function correctly, it is still possible to brake a vehicle safely by processing the redundant pressure, which is controlled in particular by means of the brake pedal, in order to output the redundant brake pressure.
  • the first brake pressure can be controlled through the inlet-outlet valve unit from the supply connection to the first axle channel connection directly and without boosting, i.e. without boosting the amount of air or the air pressure by means of a relay valve, in particular a pneumatic one.
  • the inlet-outlet valve unit preferably has no relay valve.
  • the redundant valve unit is connected to the inlet/outlet valve unit in such a way that the redundant brake pressure can be controlled via a first outlet line to vent the first axle channel connection in the event of a fault in the pilot control unit at the first axle channel connection.
  • this makes it possible to use fewer pneumatic lines, since the first outlet line, which is present in any case, is necessary in order to vent the first axle channel connection.
  • the inlet/outlet valve unit is switched in such a way that the first axle channel connection is or is vented, i.e. is not or is not vented.
  • the first outlet line which is then open in this case of error, is advantageously used for the control of the redundant brake pressure in order to modulate the redundant brake pressure at the first axle channel connection.
  • the inlet-outlet valve unit has a first pneumatically switchable 2/2-way inlet valve and a first pneumatically switchable 2/2-way outlet valve, the first pneumatically switchable 2/2-way inlet valve having the first Control pressure and the first pneumatically switchable 2/2-way outlet valve a second control pressure the pilot control unit receives.
  • the pilot control unit provides both the first control pressure and the second control pressure.
  • the first control pressure is used to switch the first 2/2-way inlet valve and the second control pressure is used to switch the first 2/2-way outlet valve.
  • the first 2/2-way inlet valve is preferably closed without pressure and the first 2/2-way outlet valve is open without pressure.
  • the first pneumatically switchable 2/2-way inlet valve has a first inlet valve connection connected to the supply connection, a second inlet valve connection connected to the first axle channel connection, and a first inlet valve control connection for receiving the first control pressure.
  • the first pneumatically switchable 2/2-way outlet valve preferably has a first outlet valve port connected or connectable to a vent, a second outlet valve port connected to the first axle channel port, and a first outlet valve control port for receiving the second control pressure.
  • the term "connectable” means that one or more further valves can be connected between the first outlet valve connection and the vent, so that when all of these valves are open or the connection of the corresponding valve connections is switched through, the first outlet valve connection is connected is connected to the vent in a pressure-conducting manner.
  • the first axle channel connection can be vented via the first outlet valve connection.
  • the redundancy valve unit has a redundancy valve.
  • the redundancy valve has a first redundancy valve port connected to the redundancy pressure port, and a second redundancy valve port that can be connected to the first axis channel port and a third redundancy valve port connected to a vent.
  • connectable means that one or more additional valves can be connected between the second redundancy valve connection and the first axis channel connection, so that when all of these valves are open or the connection of the corresponding valve connections is switched through, the second redundancy valve connection is also connected is connected to the first axle channel connection in a pressure-conducting manner.
  • the redundancy valve is preferably designed as a 3/2-way valve and switched in such a way that in a first currentless switching position the first redundancy valve connection is connected to the second redundancy valve connection and in a second energized switching position the third redundancy valve connection is connected to the second redundancy valve connection.
  • the redundancy pressure from the first redundancy valve port can be controlled through the redundancy valve and made available at the second redundancy valve port, while the redundancy pressure is blocked when the redundancy valve is energized.
  • the redundancy valve is then de-energized or has already been switched off by the error, so that the redundancy pressure can be controlled.
  • the second redundancy valve connection can be connected to the first axle channel connection, so that in this case the redundancy pressure can be modulated as redundant brake pressure at the first axle channel connection, boosted or unboosted.
  • the redundant valve unit has a shuttle valve and the redundant brake pressure can be introduced into the first outlet line via the shuttle valve. This prevents pressure from being or being able to be controlled back to the redundancy connection when the first axle channel connection is vented. In this way, the redundancy pressure can also be easily introduced into the first outlet line and still used at the same time to vent the first axle channel connection if the first axle channel connection is to be vented again to release wheel brakes in the case of redundant braking.
  • the redundancy valve unit has a relay valve for boosting the air volume or air quantity of the redundancy pressure.
  • a relay valve for boosting the air volume or air quantity of the redundancy pressure.
  • the first axle channel connection is used to initially provide a pressure to a further module, it may be sufficient for the pressure there to be increased in volume at this further module and passed to the wheel brakes.
  • the electropneumatic brake control module itself has a relay valve for the redundant pressure.
  • such a relay valve can be designed to be simple and small, since it does not have to be designed for continuous operation.
  • the sole purpose of the relay valve is to boost the redundancy pressure or the air volume and/or the air volume of the redundancy pressure, which is only used in the event of a fault. It is therefore possible to design the electropneumatic brake control module in a space-saving and cost-saving manner, although it has a relay valve in this embodiment.
  • the relay valve preferably has a relay valve supply port connected to the supply port, a relay valve vent port connected to a vent, a relay valve working port for modulating the redundant brake pressure into the first outlet line, and a relay valve control port connected or connectable to the redundant pressure port.
  • the relay valve thus receives the redundancy pressure output at the redundancy pressure connection as the control pressure, which can correspond, for example, to a manually generated pressure from a brake pedal. If this pressure is not present or is locked out, the relay valve is consequently in a venting position, since no control pressure or a control pressure with the value of the ambient pressure is present; the relay valve working port is exhausted in this position. This means that the relay valve can also be used to vent the first outlet line and thus to vent the first axle channel connection.
  • a pressure is controlled via the relay valve working connection, which can then be controlled as redundant brake pressure via the first outlet line to the first axle channel connection.
  • the relay valve working connection is connected to the first outlet valve connection.
  • the relay valve working port is directly connected to the first outlet valve port, for example via a pneumatic line.
  • the first axle channel connection can be vented via the first vent line, the first 2/2-way outlet valve and the relay valve. In the event of a fault, the first axle channel connection can then be ventilated via the relay valve, the first 2/2-way outlet valve, the first outlet line, and a corresponding redundant brake pressure can be controlled.
  • the relay valve control port is connected to the second redundancy valve port.
  • a pneumatic line in particular a pneumatic control line, is preferably provided between these in turn. If the redundancy valve is then in the de-energized first switch position, the redundancy pressure can be controlled directly via this at the relay valve control connection, in order to control the redundant brake pressure at the first axle channel connection.
  • the shuttle valve has a first shuttle valve port connected or connectable to the redundancy pressure port, a second shuttle valve port connected to a vent and a third shuttle valve port connected or connectable to the first outlet line and alternately the third shuttle valve port with either the first shuttle valve port or connects to the second shuttle valve port.
  • the shuttle valve is preferably designed as a quick-release valve, so that the third shuttle valve port is preferably connected to the second shuttle valve port is and is controlled to the first shuttle valve port only when there is a pressure difference between the first shuttle valve port and the third shuttle valve port.
  • the second shuttle valve connection is connected to the vent, so that the ambient pressure is permanently applied to it.
  • the second shuttle valve port is only closed when a pressure is present at the first shuttle valve port, such as the redundancy pressure in particular. Otherwise, the second shuttle port is permanently connected to the third shuttle port so that the third shuttle port can be vented through the second shuttle port.
  • the first shuttle valve port is connected to the second redundancy valve port.
  • the redundancy pressure is thus controlled directly at the first shuttle valve connection. This can then be controlled through when it is applied to the third shuttle valve connection.
  • the first shuttle valve port is connected to the relay valve working port. That is, the pressure output from the relay valve work port is then routed through the shuttle valve, namely through the first shuttle valve port and then output to the third shuttle valve port.
  • the second shuttle valve connection is preferably connected directly to a vent. In this variant, it is then not necessary to use the relay valve for venting the first axle channel connection as well; rather, this can be vented directly via the third shuttle valve connector and the second shuttle valve connector. A direct ventilation path is thus created.
  • the electropneumatic brake control module is provided to output brake pressures for two axles and accordingly has a second axle channel connection.
  • the inlet/outlet valve unit is then designed to modulate a second brake pressure at the second axle channel connection.
  • the first axle channel connection can be provided for the front axle, for example, and the second axle channel connection for the rear axle. Provision could also be made for the first axle channel connection to be provided for a left wheel and the second axle channel connection for a right wheel.
  • this embodiment provides that the electropneumatic pilot control unit is designed to provide at least a third control pressure at the inlet/outlet valve unit, and the redundancy valve unit is designed to control the redundant brake pressure at the second axle channel connection in the event that the electropneumatic Pilot control unit has a fault.
  • the redundant pressure is not only modulated as redundant brake pressure at the first axle channel connection, but also as redundant brake pressure at the second axle channel connection. In this case of error, the same brake pressure is consequently modulated at both axle channel connections, both the first and the second axle channel connection. Provision can also be made for this redundant brake pressure to be further modulated if the pilot control unit has not failed completely but only partially, for example through the use of additional valves and/or select-low valves.
  • the redundant valve unit is connected to the inlet/outlet valve unit in such a way that the redundant brake pressure can be controlled via a second outlet line for venting the second axle channel connection at the second axle channel connection in the event of a fault in the pilot control unit.
  • This principle is implemented according to the first axle channel connection, and both the first axle channel connection and the second axle channel connection can be pressurized via their respective first and second outlet lines in the event of a fault in order to control the redundant brake pressure.

  • the relay valve 22 can be designed even more simply, since it is not used for venting the first and second axle channel connections 4, 24 even in normal operation, but only in the event of a fault and only when the redundant brake pressure PBR is at the first and second Achskanaltagenen 4, 24 is to be controlled, is used.
